Biography:
Place of Origin: Earthrealm
Alignment: Good
Allies: Frost and Raiden
Foes: Quan Chi, Hotaru, Scorpion, Noob Saibot, Smoke(Originally an ally but
after seeing their ending, decided to change it)
Difficulty: 4 (Game Rating)
History: Sub-Zero has been in just about every Mortal Kombat. Him and Scorpion
were in the very first one, and are still the favorite mortal kombatants to
this date. After the Mortal Kombat Movies, Sub-Zero was added to the Good side,
and got many new outfits. In Deadly Alliance he had a no mask one. And now has
adopted a Samurai looking mask with his usual outfit.
Bio 1:
While still in Outworld, the Lin Keui Grand Master, Sub-Zero, discovers his
true heritage -- the source of his mastery over cold. This discovery will aid
him in the fight against the Dragon King's Tarkatan hordes.
Bio 2: Unlocked at the Krypt Number AS C-3/Earthrealm
I learned that the ruins were a holy structure belonging to a lost race of
people who had attained mastery over cold. After throrough study of this
culture,I now believe both Frost and myself to be their descendents. I laid
Frost's body in a sarcophagus and left the catacombs donning the armor of my
newly discovered heritage.
First Person Bio:
My fellow Lin Kuei Frost, had betrayed me and stolen my dragon
medallion. Unable to control the medallion's power, she was consumed
by her own freezing ability. I searched Outworld for a suitable place to bury
her remains when I happened upon ancient ruins, carved into a Mountain Side.
Alternate Outfit:
Unlocked at the Kyrpt Number: RM
Location: F-8/Earthrealm (7pm-9pm)
His new outfit is his elders clothing style. His head is shaved and has a
little rat tail at the end. Dressed in his usual blue suit.
Defalt Outfit:
This outfit, is a samurai looking Sub-Zero and the ninjas are very different
now. Each with their own look, Sub-Zero still keeps his blue clothing.
-Because of some much emails and IM's, I have decided to put in a note her that
the mask he wears is very similiar to Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles, thanks for all the info.
Ending Summary:
Sub-Zero is ambushed by the tarkantan's and a in a last-minute power up
destroys them all, as he walks away a wounded tarkantan speaks the words, "Long
live the Dragon King"
Past Mortal Kombat History by johny_6_6_6 (lol unedited)
(MK1-3)
Subzero was used by the sorcerer Quan Shin(or how ever it's spelled) as a
investigator and when he achieved his goal, Quan found no more uses in him and
sent Scorpion at his tail having convinced him that Sub-Zero destroyed his
village... (but it was Quan Shin) Sub-Zero killed him in MK, but then Scrop
have been brung back to life to revenge... (explains the skull face from
'toasty' finishing move...)
(MK4)
At the point where you beat the game with Sub/Scorp, the cinematic goes about
like this: one of the 2 is to the floor, almost dead(which one = depends on
which user you used to beat the game...) then Quan Shin comes in and put sub
zero to the floor if he's the one still standing and gets ready to finish
him. He then explain what happened about Scorp's village and get ready to
throw back Scorp in his prison-like realm (shadowrealm?) but as he was about
to get suck in it, very VERY mad, Scorpion gets a last desperate move and take
a solid hold on Quan Shin, bringing him with him...
(Mk5) (Deadly Alliance)
at the Beginning, they mentionned that Quan SHin has been emprisonned in the
something-realm; that's because of Scorpion...he's not a Sub-zero alied, but
he's not an annemy anymore... Scorpion isn't a Shao Khan/Dragon King/Quan
Shin/whoever's pawn; he's just a lot soul that refused to die cause he wanted
vangence... and he got it... The part about Frost seems right though; that's
pretty much what happenned in the Deadly Alliance between thos 2 car...
---------------
Sub-Zero Notes
---------------
What is good about him?
Sub-Zero has the ability freeze his opponents, stopping them in their tracks
and allowing you to get a free hit. His specials are easy to execute and
remember. Plus he has that look to him, that screams "Don't Mess with me" His
weapon is a Kori Blade which cause great damage to his opposing fighter. He
does have some good combos that are easy, like starting in Dragon and pressing,
1,2,CS which gives you a nice setup to 50/50 with your Kori blade.
What is not good about him?
Sub-Zero lacks easy combo remembrence and power. His combos can
be hard to execute when you are on your tippy toes trying to stay alive in
brutal online battle. (Keep in mind, this may very from person to person)
-----------
Strategies
-----------
What works well against the CPU?
For some reason, the CPU will learn what you do if you constantly do it. For
example if you constantly freeze them and then attack with the Kori Blade, in
the matches to come they will block the freeze more often and attack you. To
counter this, you need to mix up you attacks, and rotate your specials that you
are using.
What works well against veteran players?
To be a veteran at this game, you have to learn all the cheap attacks people
do and know how to counter them. I would normally suggested the Freeze and Ice
Shoulder them, but they will see the freeze coming unless you can get close
without them hitting you. If they come to you, use an Ice Clone move and freeze
them in their tracks, allowing you to move on.
What works well against medicore players?
These players won't know how to block and stop these tricks. Ice ball to Cold
shoulder works wonders, and following up with Kori Blades' Spinning Slash and
Kori Uppercut, will get you the flawless victory blowouts you want.
What works well to hit them into Death Traps?
My favorite way is to use Cold Shoulder, because it can catch them off guard
and send them flying. There are also many other great moves like his kicks,
that send your oppoent flying, don't forget about freezing to aim them
correctly.
What works against him?
Freeze should be no problem to block but be carefull getting to close or using
a long combo because he can use ice clone which freezes you and gives him a
free hit.

___/Specials\_________________________________________________________________
============================================
Rib Breaker : TH : Rating: 4/5
============================================
Everyone has a throw, and they are all most equally powerful, provdiding 2-3
different hits to cause massive damage. Sub-Zero's falls short of some of the
great ones like Bo Rai Cho and Mileena's, but it still gives great damag to
whoever you are fighting.
============================================
Ice Clone : D,B+1 : Rating: 3/5
============================================
This would be the best move if it weren't so hard to use it's full
potentional. Getting the CPU to touch this, is downright impossible and the
only way a human will touch it, is if they are standing right there, and get
caught in it. For blocking blasts it does a so-so job, and you could easily
have done a regular block instead.
From: Bahamut83
"Also, their is a very easy way to hit foes with this move, but it does take a
little bit of foresight. If you see your foe start to do a combo (and your not
hit by the first attack) lay down the ice clone. Since most combos cause the
enemy to move foward, they will do their combo right into it."
============================================
Freeze Ball : D,F+3 : Rating: 5/5
============================================
Sub-Zero's classic move is back, the ability to stop and opponent and give you
a free hit. The only thing I can complain about is the fact that you can block
this, even though your arm doesn't get frozen.
============================================
Cold Shoulder : B,F+4 : Rating: 5/5
============================================
One of his newly moves in the newer games, this ability uses his ice to ice the
floor, and slide across to elbow his opponent. This is especially well to use
for deathtraps or following up on Freeze Ball.
__________
___/Fatalities\_______________________________________________________________
Switch to Fatality when announcer says,"Finish Him"
F,B,D,F,2 : Fatility 1 (Must be fairly Close)
Description: Sub-Zero summons all of his powers and he unleashes a laser-like
blast of ice that puts the opponent in a deep freeze. He walks over to the
frozen opponent, messes with their head a little and rips it right off. Then he
walks away, does an ice slice backward and he throws the head at the opponent's
still frozen but now headless body, shattering it to pieces. Subby raises his
arms and gives a fist up.
B,D,F,D,1 : Fatality 2 (Sweep)
Description: Sub-Zero freezes the opponent's legs all the way up to the hips.
then he does a sweep that shatters the block of ice, costing the opponent their
legs. the opponent desperately crawls away saying "No, no, no!!!" while
Sub-Zero slowly walks toward them and he raises his left leg and stomps on his
opponent's stomach so damn hard, their head pops right off their shoulders. The
opponent dies instantly while Sub-Zero gives a fist up.
D,U,D,U,2 : Hari Kiri (When you have lost, input to kill yourself)
Description: Sub-Zero comes out of his dizziness and freezes himself from the
legs to where he is spreading his arms. After he gets himself encased in his
own ice, he falls over and he is shattered is pieces; blood, body matter and
chunks of ice are all over.
